The Campaign For DA

2.20.2012

This Frisco teenager claims she was abducted and taken to Oklahoma over the weekend before she got away. WBAP has reported this afternoon that police now say she says the abductor was a black male, around 5'10", in his 20s, who wore a hoodie. I haven't seen that report anywhere else, however. Edit: Frisco Press release here. (PDF)

This may very well be legit. But if she's making up a fictional black man as her abductor, this story is going to be a lot bigger than she ever dreamed.

Edit: Wow. She is now claiming sexual assault. (And the media's general policy of not identifying sexual assault victims is going to be a little tough to enforce.)

Barbara Reed-Hardison was found handcuffed in the trunk of a car in 2001. It wasn't until a massive man-hunt had begun that she admitted to handcuffing herself and faking the kidnapping.She lost her job as a professor at East Central University.

My guess is that within a week we will see a sobbing press conference and she will be admitted into a hospital for "help".Black people will express their disdain for racist white folk.Fox4 will have a psyciatrist on describing how this could happen.Students will be interviewed at the local high school revealing that they always thought she was weird...And there will be a Facebook page created to donate money to the family.
